I highly recommend Tami Principe’s book, ‘The Green Rabbit’, a book reminiscent of time honored children’s tales interwoven with truths regarding vital safety information - that may one day save your child’s life. It teaches children in a delightful and entertaining way with the same parenting skills once passed down from parents of old with more time and wisdom on their hands than money; and though today’s parents still care – there’s not always time to teach the obvious. Tami goes yet one step further, updating ‘warnings’ unknown of in yesterday’s world. ~ John Borgstedt, author of, “I Love You Mom-Please Don’t Break My Heart.”

A Blessing

Each time I sat down to write a new blog I was constantly interrupted. It seemed like every 5 minutes my spoiled dogs wanted to go outside. It also seemed like every time I sat down to relax I had to get up to pick up scattered clothes that my husband had left draped over the couches. Or, I finally sit down to write and have lost all train of thought. I had my title/subject that I wanted to write about but not enough hours in the day to make it happen. It is often during the times when we are most busy that we lose track of how blessed we are.

So, as I sit here listening to my phone blowing up, I can clearly see how far we’ve been distancing ourselves from some things. All the phone calls, text messages, email alerts, news notifications, Facebook posts and we certainly can’t forget about important Instagram pictures from friends and family, it is amazing that we can finish reading a book.

Release Expectations

We all hold others in high regard. When we give all of our love and devotion, we expect others to live up to the same expectations. When we call others to catch up or to show our concern, we expect the same when we are going through things as well.

An Overwhelming Abundance

You can have an abundance of love just as you might have an abundance of hard times. “My cup runneth over,” means that I have abundance in my life. We can look at how someone has abundance in; joy, love, friendship, wealth, status, spirituality, compassion, a state of being, knowledge, etc. Each person is different, what is important to one person may not be as important to someone else.
